{"product_id":"9781454927341","title":"Good Fight","description":"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"A powerful collection of personal journeys through words, images, music, and videos that shows how much progress still lies ahead in the quest for dignity and equality.” —Walter Isaacson, author of \u003ci\u003eBenjamin Franklin: An American Life\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSteve Jobs\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e From the creator of the bestselling Day in the Life series comes an extraordinary illustrated book showing how much progress has been made in America over the last 100 years against hatred, bigotry, racism, and injustice—and how much more work remains to be done. \u003ci\u003eThe Good Fight\u003c\/i\u003e vividly depicts the human face of America's sporadically violent, often triumphant, always risky struggle to fulfill the promise of freedom and equality for all. Fought in the streets, the courthouse, and the corridors of Congress, it is a story that has become America's own morality play, illustrated here through more than 180 memorable photographs, nearly 60 embedded videos, over a dozen compelling essays plus examples of music and lyrics that rallied America's resistance to injustice. For those who wish to eradicate bigotry and intolerance in America, \u003ci\u003eThe Good Fight\u003c\/i\u003e is a call to action. It shows us how much we as a nation have accomplished; it also reminds us of the fragility of our success and how quickly this hard-fought progress can slip away if we do not remain vigilant.   In addition, \u003ci\u003eThe Good Fight\u003c\/i\u003e features a smartphone app (THE GOOD FIGHT VIEWER) that enables readers to point their smartphones or tablets at over 60 photos to immediately stream online video clips, including TED Talks, that vividly bring each story to life.   This timely book captures the struggles—and the successes—experienced by women, African Americans, Native Americans, Jews, Muslims, the LGBTQ community, Latinos, Asian Americans, and the disabled. Along with the eloquent images and graphics, \u003ci\u003eThe Good Fight\u003c\/i\u003e includes short guest essays from individuals representing each group.
